At once an incredible adventure narrative and a penetrating biographical portrait, this book tells the remarkable untold story behind Edward Curtis's iconic photographs. A Bonus disc features Edward Curtis photographs.
This book follows Edward Curtis throughout American Indian territory, from desert to rainforest, as he struggled to document the stories and rituals of more than eighty tribes.
Even with the backing of Theodore Roosevelt and J. P. Morgan, Curtis's journeys took tremendous perseverance. The undertaking changed him profoundly, from detached observer to outraged advocate.
Curtis died penniless and unknown in Hollywood just a few years after publishing the last of his twenty volumes. But the charming rogue with the grade-school education had fulfilled his promise--his great adventure succeeded in creating one of America's most stunning cultural achievements.
Included is a pdf with samples of Edward Curtis' striking works.
